Re: firewall for iBook G4
Hi, I'm getting ready to buy an iBook G4 this week. What's a good firewall? A friend of mine has some sort of a router box as a firewall instead of a program. All suggestions appreciated and/or webpages with info. Thanks, Jocelyn -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

A router using NAT does do pretty good at blocking things as well. Truth be told, out of the box OS X doesn't really need a firewall because no ports are open: look in the Sharing pane; if nothing's checked, nothing's open. -- Bruce Johnson This is the sig who says 'Ni!' -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

MicroTech SCSI to USB adapter SyQuest Drive. . .
Hello All, Has anyone tried the MicroTech SCSI to USB adapter? I recently picked one up on eBay and pulled out my old SyQuest drive along with three carts, blew off the dust, plugged everything in and believe it or not, it worked! I didn't need the CD-ROM that came with the adapter which made since due to OS X Panther having all USB related installed. BUT. . .there is a problem. For some reason, when I pop in a SyQuest cart, I get THREE (3) icons represented on the desktop for the one cart! Anyone know why this is happening? I checked Apple System Profiler, and it sates only one under the SyQuest drive. But, looking in Disk Utility, it reads three. Go figure. I've just been trashing the ghosts and using one and it seems to be fine, but if anyone in here uses or knows anyone who has made the attempt to use the SCSI to USB adapter with a Syquest removable cart drive, let me know. Thanks! Zoltan -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Sony Pismo drives query
Others have mentioned suitable replacement drives for the Pismo. What about the Sony CRX820E? The Matshita SR-8174-C drive and sled (you'll need both) is the other major OEM drive that was used on the Pismo and will fit perfectly. The SR-8174-C 6X Mfgd 2000 (Pismo) and the SR-8173-C ?X Mfgd 1999 (Lombard) both seem to work well. I've replaced both with up-to-date writeable and rewriteable drives, with good success, except for cosmetics. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
